Noise benchmarking and compact-performance testing for baby food makers

About

Tests baby food makers in real apartment kitchens, logging noise, time-to-smooth puree, and cleanup cycles. Designs small-space rigs to quantify footprint.

Background

When my neighbor’s newborn finally napped, I measured every pulse of a blender through the wall. The loud ones woke him; the quiet one didn’t. That afternoon, I started building spreadsheets with decibel readings, batch volumes, and cleanup times. Sleep survived, dinner happened, and data replaced guesswork.

Perspective

I favor quieter, smaller machines over beautiful or feature-stuffed ones.
